Some old crusty CPUs need an extra delay that slows down booting. See the comment above 'init_udelay' for details. Newer CPUs don't need the delay. Right now, for Intel, Family 6 and only Family 6 skips the delay. That leaves out both the Family 15 (Pentium 4s) and brand new Family 18/19 models. The omission of Family 15 (Pentium 4s) seems like an oversight and 18/19 do not need the delay. Skip the delay on all Intel processors Family 6 and beyond.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
